Thank you so much Alyson & Tim for such a magical stay. This sweet little bed & breakfast was beautifully positioned on such an idyllic farm with an incredible backdrop to gaze out upon. The bed was super comfortable, and bathroom facilities perfect. Beautiful short car ride to both Hobbiton, Wairere Falls and into the MataMata township. We’ll most certainly be back. Thank you xx

We loved it here! Kylie and family were such wonderful and warm hosts. Kylie was very responsive to messages and provided pictures to help check in go smoothly. The space was as pictured and was beautifully decorated/appointed. We were welcomed with a freshly baked loaf of country bread and a refrigerator stocked with every thing we needed for breakfast including some almond milk for my vegan companion. The bed and sofa couch were both very comfortable. At night, being away from town we could see the stars! Kylie had such nice touches like high end shampoo/condition/lotion, a USB plug, nice linens, pretty plates and stoneware, and absolutely every thing you would need in the kitchen. We were going to Hobbiton and were looking for a place nearby to stay so we would not have to drive to Rotorua or Hamilton after. It's 18 minutes away and we couldn't have picked a better spot. Believe me we looked at the other options in the area and this one was far better by strides.

This was an amazing stay! Our family of 5 was visiting Hobbiton and we needed a place where we could all stay together comfortably. This house had everything we needed and lovely unexpected touches like chocolates and coffee! Definitely recommend to anyone visiting the area.

    The main point of our trip was to visit Hobbiton Movie Set. This is an amazing experience, our second trip. Have done both the lunch & dinner experience. Food, staff & experience rate a 10. Had a great meal at Sofra, food & staff were great. Breakfast at The Rich Coffee Cafe was nice and the staff were ok. Visited the I-Centre too and found the staff to be helpful.

    Matamata is a nice little town with the usual array of shops and some good eating places. Of course its access to Hobbiton, which was the purpose of our trip, but enjoyed a pleasant evening eating fish n chips in the wooded, shaded park area by the Isite.

    We were in Matamata for a wedding at Hobbiton which was a great experience for us, even though we are not Lord of the Rings fans. Plenty of places to dine and from Maple Lodge was an easy walk into the main centre of town.

    Everything. It was the perfect place to recover from our 2nd breakfast tour at Hobbiton. We didn't even explore Matamata as we had a couch, tea and Netflix. This place is so cosy & our hosts helped us out with getting access to streaming (none of ours were available in NZ). Best bed that we slept in across our 2.5 weeks of travel. It may be a small place, but the photos don't do it justice.

    We loved our stay at Broadway Motel. We got a free upgrade to one of the Villa's. It was a home away from home. Totally immaculate, with plenty of space and privacy. The host was exceptional, she was so helpful and welcoming.The location was perfectly situated near the main town and near all the shops and cafés.
